muffled.studio — writing
Copy and content voice for muffled.studio. Visual layout and components are muffled-studio-design or muffled-ui — use those when strings also need typography, spacing, or registry patterns.
Voice
Dry, precise, direct. No fluff. We — not I, not you. Lowercase by default (including labels and most headings). Title-case only for proper nouns. Brand: muffled.studio, lowercase, with the dot.
No exclamation marks. No emoji. Short sentences; periods do the work.
Vibe: a workshop, not a showroom. Stamped, terse, true.
Examples
- ✅ "we build things. mostly software. some of it ships."
- ✅ "we made a thing. it works. it's small."
- ✅ "shipped. tiny. useful."
- ❌ "We're so excited to announce…" (performative)
- ❌ "You'll love how easy it is!" (2nd-person, exclamation, hyperbole)
- ❌ "Revolutionary new way to build apps" (marketing slop)
Pronouns
We for the studio. Avoid you — describe the thing, don't address the reader. If a sentence needs a subject: "the app", "the thing", "this".
Punctuation and numbers
Period > em-dash > comma. No semicolons unless prose demands it. Ellipses are fine, used literally.
Numbers and stats only when real and useful. No vanity metrics, no charts-for-decoration.
UI strings
Keep labels and errors lowercase unless a proper noun requires otherwise. Error messages: grotesk tone, direct, no blame — state what failed or what to do next.
When copy sits in a designed surface, load muffled-studio-design or muffled-ui as appropriate.
